Big Five Safari Tanzanie
Les Big Five de Tanzanie sont le lion, le léopard, l’éléphant, le rhinocéros noir et le buffle. Le cratère du Ngorongoro est le seul endroit en Tanzanie où vous pouvez observer les cinq de manière réaliste en une seule journée. Pour maximiser vos chances sur un voyage complet, combinez le Ngorongoro avec le Serengeti et le Tarangire sur 4 à 7 jours pendant la saison sèche (juin-octobre).

Voir les Big Five en Tanzanie ne consiste pas à cocher des cases depuis l’arrière d’un véhicule de safari. Il s’agit d’observer une lionne s’immobiliser en pleine course à l’odeur d’une proie, de trouver un léopard étendu sur une branche d’acacia à l’heure dorée, ou de contourner un virage dans le cratère du Ngorongoro pour découvrir un rhinocéros noir broutant à vingt mètres de là. Peu d’endroits sur Terre rendent les cinq animaux aussi accessibles en un seul voyage, et la Tanzanie en fait partie.
Ci-dessous, nous expliquons ce que sont réellement les Big Five, exactement où et quand les trouver, et comment planifier un voyage qui vous donne la meilleure chance réaliste de voir les cinq, et pas seulement trois ou quatre.
Qu’est-ce qu’un safari Big Five ?
Le terme « Big Five » n’a pas été inventé par des défenseurs de l’environnement ou des photographes animaliers. Les chasseurs de gros gibier de l’époque coloniale en Afrique utilisaient cette expression pour désigner les cinq animaux considérés comme les plus dangereux à chasser à pied, et non les cinq plus grands animaux du continent. Lions, léopards, éléphants, rhinocéros et buffles ont gagné ce titre par leur imprévisibilité et le risque lié à une confrontation rapprochée.
Aujourd’hui, le terme n’a plus rien à voir avec la chasse. C’est un raccourci pour désigner les cinq observations fauniques les plus emblématiques lors d’un safari africain, et la Tanzanie se classe constamment parmi les meilleurs endroits du continent pour trouver les cinq.
Pourquoi un safari Big Five en Tanzanie avec Kilidove Tours
La Tanzanie possède quelques avantages que des pays comme le Kenya ou l’Afrique du Sud ne peuvent égaler pour un voyage dédié aux Big Five.
La Tanzanie abrite la plus grande population de lions d’Afrique, estimée à environ 14 000, soit environ 4 à 5 fois celle du Kenya ou de la Zambie. Tarangire seul abrite certaines des plus grandes concentrations de troupeaux d’éléphants en Afrique de l’Est, surtout pendant la saison sèche. Il est facile d’observer de grands troupeaux de buffles à travers le Ngorongoro, le Serengeti et le Tarangire avec un minimum d’effort. Les léopards peuvent être vus partout, mais la région de Seronera du Serengeti est l’une des zones d’observation de léopards les plus fiables d’Afrique. Le rhinocéros noir est le plus difficile des cinq à trouver n’importe où sur le continent. Le cratère du Ngorongoro abrite l’une des seules populations observables en Tanzanie.
Ce dernier point est plus important que ce que les gens attendent. Les rhinocéros sont rares dans presque toute l’Afrique maintenant, et la plupart des itinéraires de safari les ignorent discrètement. Un itinéraire tanzanien construit autour des Big Five, spécifiquement un qui inclut le Ngorongoro, est l’une des rares façons réalistes de voir un rhinocéros noir sauvage.
Si vous voulez faire un vrai safari Big Five dans les règles de l’art, Kilidove Tours est le nom à qui faire confiance. Nous organisons des safaris Big Five en Tanzanie depuis 18 ans, et nous connaissons les parcs, les saisons et les meilleurs itinéraires pour vous rapprocher des cinq animaux sans perdre de temps ni d’argent. Nos guides locaux, nos prix honnêtes et notre expérience réelle sur le terrain, c’est ce qui nous rend uniques.
EXCELLENT Based on 320 reviews Posted on Tripadvisor saschastoltenowVerified A life-time experience We were on a family trip to Tansania and through a recommendation for a Safari operator we got in contact with Kilidove. And what can I say: Right from the moment Sam, our guide for the first week, picked us up at Kilimanjaro Airport, we were complety immersed. And yes, we were tourists, but never really feeled like, but more as guests, with Sam beeing the perfect host - a true lover of the animals and nature, an excellent driver and very attentive and open to share his experiences.Posted on Tripadvisor Jillian DVerified Incredible people! Trip of a lifetime! Kilidove is incredible!! We did the 6 day machame route on Kilimanjaro followed by a 4 day safari followed by 4 days in Zanzibar. The accommodations were amazing, the people were even better and we are both vegan and gluten free and they were able to accommodate (even on the mountain while camping). I cannot say enough good things about this company!! For the trek up Kili our chief guide was Colman and he was so kind, funny, and caring. Because of him we both had a successful and pleasurable experience summiting. He is an excellent guide! For our safari we had Jackson and we saw the big 5 plus every other animal you could think of. He was an excellent safari guide. We had one small hiccup on the trip in Zanzibar with a city tour that got cut a bit short. Notified the company and they were extremely apologetic, comped our dinner for the next 3 nights (which was completely unnecessary but much appreciated) and given a new tour guide for the next day. The trip then ran flawlessly. They most definitely made it right! They are amazing. I recommend kilidove to anyone and everyone for all your Africa adventures!!Posted on Tripadvisor sanVerified Best safari tour ever! We booked our honey moon with Kilidove and it was the best experience ever!We were super lucky to get Bony as our guide and he couldn’t have been better!!The overall experience was great, they care about sustainability and our guide was super respectful to wilde life!! 10/10 experience.Everything was well organized (transport, hotels, foods, itinerary) we didn’t have to worry about anything… only enjoying!Posted on Tripadvisor mormonVerified Perfect job, and very trustful company to climb Kilimanjaro in a 6 people group Activity: climbing Kilimanjaro.We climbed Kilimanjaro in 7 days by the Machame road.Group of 6 people, with 3 guides 1 chef, 1 waiter and 18 porters (3/pax), which is the norm. Everything went well and we succeeded in our quest to the summit. The guides and all the Tanzanian people with us have been amazing, helpful, and nice ... Considering the lack of comfort and the difficulty of the ascension, we consider that they did a perfect job with the cooperation and the advice. Asante for everything you made for us, to make the dream coming true!!Posted on Tripadvisor aborowVerified Mr. Bonny at Kilidove is Amazing! We had Mr. Bonny from Kilidove pick us up from our Arusha hotel and serve as a private guide for 3 nights in the Seregenti, and our return trip back to Arusha. Mr. Bonny was an incredible guide! He was so knowledgable about all the animals and everything we saw on our safari. It was clear how much he loved the animals and at home he was in the Serengeti, having grown up right outside the park. He was able to spot animals so far in the distance, and find the elusive leopard in the tree that no one else could find. Mr. Bonny was engaging, kind and an absolute pleasure to spend time with. It truly was sad to say goodbye to him. I have to also note that Mr. Bonny was a very safe driver. When driving to/from Arusha, we were stunned by the number of safari vehicles speeding by us on the unsafe and rocky dirt roads. Driving in Tanzania is not for the faint of heart, as we witnessed a few accidents, including some cows being hit by a public bus. We were so grateful to him and would highly recommend!Posted on Tripadvisor FranziskaVerified Best safari experience! We spent our honeymoon in Tanzania for a 9 day safari trip in Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro national parks and it probably was the most incredible experience we had so far. The booking process was really comfortable and easy, Lisa answered all of our questions quickly and made the safari fit to all our wishes (not leaving the set budget out of mind).We especially want to thank our guide, Sam, for the amazing trip that was mostly his merit. He went above and beyond to ensure we got the most out of our trip. He had a profunde knowledge of all the locations and the wildlife and knew where the best spots for watching wildlife were. No wishes remained unfulfilled. Besides that, Sam was incredibly nice and a great (and hilarious) company during the long car rides. Everybody getting to do a safari trip with him can call themselves lucky!Thank you so much to the whole team, asante sana!Posted on Tripadvisor PaulU561Verified Superb in every way. Highly recommended and without hesitation! Choose Kilidove for the experience of a lifetime! We contacted Kilidove after an online search to find a company that could plan a month-long itinerary including Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania ending in Zanzibar to celebrate my 60th birthday. We received back a professionally presented proposal which we were delighted to find was a privately guided tour. Our only essential requirement was to see the mountain gorillas in Rwanda, but the proposal was comprehensive and varied including safaris as well as cultural experiences. We had to book our own international flights, apply for necessary visas and get certain vaccinations ourselves, but everything else was taken care of without a single hiccup. We stayed in a variety of accommodations from 5-star hotels and lodges to tented camps and they all enhanced our adventure in different ways. The main guides and drivers, Duncan, George and Boni were all professional, dedicated and enthusiastic. Our stand out experiences were obviously meeting the gorillas high up in the mountain in Rwanda, seeing the elusive leopard up a tree in Kenya, spending 90 minutes alone with a lion family complete with four cubs by a water hole in the Serengeti and two hours hunting with the Hadzabe tribe in Tanzania. There were many more, the cheetahs close up in the Maasai Mara and the hot air balloon ride, the many different bird species including huge flocks of flamingos and pelicans, the Karen Blixen Museum in Nairobi, the Genocide Memorial in Kigali, the cycling tour of Mto Wa Mbu, I could write a book! It was a very active holiday so it was nice to just chill out in Zanzibar for five days at the end. Everything was organised by the incredible Lisa Adams who was there to help with any questions via WhatsApp or email throughout the planning process and after we had arrived in East Africa. We were told there are 300+ safari companies in Arusha where she is based and for sure, without hesitation, we would highly recommend Kilidove to anyone. They were superb in every way. As well as that I have now clocked up my 87th country worldwide and my 13th African country. Thank you Kilidove for everything!Posted on Tripadvisor Louise GVerified A memorable outstanding safari to Kenya and Tanzania , Hakuna Matata We just came back from a wonderful , well planned and organized safari to Kenya and Tanzania for 12 days and with an additional 5 days in Zanzibar from October 6th to October 23rd 2023. We really want to thank Lisa Adams who helped us plan and coordinate this memorable, private safari and leisure time in these countries. We had marvelous, respectful , reliable and so knowledgeable guides and drivers. First, Kelvin Vinkar from Dove Africa, the sister company in Kenya, was on time at the airport and despite the fact that we missed our connection with Qatar airlines, everything turned out quite well with the airlines personnel and we were on time for our schedule to go to our first park Amboseli and to Kibo safari lodge for two nignts. Perfect, we had game drives on both days that were unbelievable with the Kilimandjaro that was so clear. We were able to see so many species of animals such as girafes, elephants, zebras, Thomson's gazelles ,antilopes, impalas, waterbucks, cheetahs and lions with all their beauty and living environment. The Kibo lodge was very comfortable with beautiful views of the Kilimanjaro. We continued our itinary to lake Nakuru, 9 hours of driving and stopping at the incredible Great Rift valley. We were so happy to visit the park as we saw 2 rhinoceros, mother and baby , we were at our 4 th big 5 already . We were a bit late to arrive at the Ziwa Bush Lodge that seemed to be very nice, so quiet and peaceful, the staff accomodated us so nicely for one night, The next morning we left for the Maassai Mara reserve and Olengoti eco lodge at Narok at the Talek river . What a reception on arrival we got by all the staff, an incredible 2 days , having breakfast and dinner with the hippopotams and crocrodiles and beautiful and memorable game drive to the awesome Maassai Mara reserve , The plains are so beautiful and the animals are incredible. We were able to visit a Maassai village near the camp, memorable time with these beautiful people and children. We learned so much of their culture and habits. Kelvin with his calm and patience drove us safely for 5 hours through massai mara reserve to the border of Tanzania. We didn't have trouble to pass the border and customs and Bonnie , Boniphace Sospiter our incredible guide for Tanzania was already waiting for us for the take over. We were heading to the Serengeti park north side to Gnu migration camp. We were the only visitors , what a service we had . With a little of rain but a real blessing as David said. Marvelous meals and attention from the staff, We already start with a game drive that was so wonderful in Serengeti parks with all the beautiful Gnus and Zebras and the next morning a leopard our 5th big five that was missing so far, Bonnie was so knowledgeable, sensitive , very helpful and very accomodating to all our needs and ensure we see animals in all their behaviors of calm or hunting. He ensure in every camp that we always had our lunch to all game drives on long days. We loved so much all the Mawe lodges that we visit along our itinary in Serengeti and Norongoro crater, Karatu and Tarangire national parks. All the teams and personel of the Mawe lodges are so welcoming, so nice and so handsome . We loved everyone we met. Bonnie drove us to the airport after 7 days of intense safari games but so memorable in the savanah . We flew for internal flight to Zanzibar with flight link and other driver Luqman was waiting for us, and drove us to Tembo hotel, in Stonetown, so beautiful and confortable on the beach with a wonderful view of the port. The next morning we were able to have a visit of stone town that was very interesting to learn the history and culture, the big market. We could visit the Freddy Mercury museum. After we left for Pongwe beach hotel for 4 days that concluded in peace and rest at the marvelous beach and resort with excellent cuisine. We will always remember this wonderful trip of East Africa and Zanzibar and we are so happy to have chosen Kilidove safari and tours for planning the trip as everything went so well , so safely and so well organized and the choices of the lodge or camp were so confortable and we ate everywhere so well with an outstanding service with amazing staff. Thank you to every one we met in this incredible journey and you will always remain in our hearts. Hakuna Matata. Louise and Serge from Montréal, Québec, Canada.Posted on Tripadvisor Flyer46143703659Verified "Bucket List Brilliance" We 6 Seasoned Safari Enthusiasts were blown away by The Serengeti Experience. The best decision was adopting Kilidove Tours to hang it all together. Lisa, your Admin. Management was perfect. (even to the extent of organizing a Birthday Party Cake in the Bush). Then there was our Driver/Guide and Friend Bonny, You are simply "The Best".Asante-sana. Derek Fay (Cape Town).Posted on Tripadvisor KatieCT045Verified 5 Stars isn't high enough for Kilidove Tours My husband and I have recently returned from a 15-day private adventure designed and carried out by Kilidove Tours and Safaris. From start to finish this trip was planned and executed flawlessly thanks to the amazing team at Kilidove. On a scale from one to ten, they deserve a fifteen! I could write pages about our experience, but I will try to hit the highlights. From the first contact a year before our trip, Lisa Adams (Kilidove’s operations manager) responded to every question in a series of emails ranging from possible itineraries to vehicle maintenance. The result was the perfect trip that addressed every wish and concern on our list- safari start day in case of travel delays, safari locations, cultural experiences, snorkeling, and a beach retreat. Our safari guide mentioned several times how impressed he was with our personalized itinerary.Eleven months passed between the date we booked our trip and our departure for Tanzania. During that time whenever a question came up, I would send an email off to Kilidove and Lisa would respond immediately. We received guidance on packing lists, luggage limits, visa requirements, and availability of health services. All this information allowed us to be well prepared for our Tanzanian adventure.Once in Tanzania, each person we encountered did everything they could to make us feel at home and worked tirelessly to ensure we had the best experience possible. All the accommodations were clean and comfortable ranging from the Mawe tent lodges to the Zanzibar beach resort. Meals were tailored to an American/European pallet and the greatest care was taken to provide safe water and food in order to prevent any illness. Our drivers and safari guide were the most amazing people. The range of skills they possessed took us by surprise. They are professional drivers, multi-linguists, cultural ambassadors, and wildlife experts. Each one asked us what our wishes and desires were for our trip and work tirelessly to make sure we didn’t leave Tanzania disappointed. Above all they were warm and friendly people with whom we shared many laughs and special experiences. We are forever grateful to Johnson our Arusha guide, Luqman our Zanzibar guide, Habib our Stone Town guide and most importantly Samson our safari guide who showed us more of Tanzania then we could ever have imagined. Thank you all for your hospitality and kindness.Finally, I want to thank Lisa and everyone on the Kilidove team that made our dream vacation a reality. I know during our fifteen-day adventure she kept tabs on us, either through direct contact with me or one of our guides. She was always one step ahead of us making sure that transitions from one part of the trip to the next ran smoothly. I hope that I can return to Tanzania one day and I look forward to that time when we can work together once again.
Meilleurs parcs pour voir les Big Five en Tanzanie
Le cratère du Ngorongoro est ce qui se rapproche le plus d’une observation garantie des Big Five en une journée, partout en Afrique. Le fond du cratère est un écosystème autonome d’environ 260 km² de large, délimité par des parois de 600 mètres, ce qui concentre la faune dans un espace suffisamment petit pour être couvert en un seul safari. C’est aussi le seul endroit sur la plupart des itinéraires du circuit nord où les observations de rhinocéros noirs sont réalistes.
Le Serengeti est le lieu de l’action des prédateurs. Lions, léopards et la fin de la Grande Migration (selon la saison) en font le parc que la plupart des amateurs de safari imaginent lorsqu’ils pensent à la Tanzanie.
Le Tarangire récompense les voyageurs qui veulent moins de véhicules et plus d’éléphants. La rivière Tarangire ne s’assèche jamais complètement, ce qui attire d’énormes troupeaux pendant la saison sèche lorsque d’autres sources d’eau disparaissent ailleurs.
Combien de jours faut-il pour voir les cinq ?
C’est la question à laquelle presque aucune autre page de safari ne répond directement. C’est celle qui compte le plus lorsque vous décidez comment dépenser votre budget.
4 jours — Réaliste pour observer confortablement quatre des cinq animaux (lion, éléphant, buffle et probablement léopard) si votre itinéraire inclut le Ngorongoro. Les observations de rhinocéros sont possibles mais non garanties avec un emploi du temps plus serré, car elles dépendent de la partie du fond du cratère que vous traversez. Notre safari de 4 jours en Tanzanie (Arusha → Lac Manyara → Cratère du Ngorongoro → Tarangire) est construit précisément autour de cet itinéraire.
5 jours — Le juste milieu pour la plupart des voyageurs. Une journée supplémentaire donne à votre guide plus de flexibilité pour tenter d’observer un rhinocéros dans le Ngorongoro et passer du temps réel dans le Serengeti ou le Tarangire plutôt que de se précipiter. Notre safari de 5 jours en Tanzanie (Arusha → Lac Manyara → Tarangire → Cratère du Ngorongoro → Arusha/Aéroport du Kilimandjaro) couvre les quatre parcs majeurs avec une certaine marge de manœuvre.
7 jours et plus — Des chances quasi certaines de voir les cinq, avec suffisamment de temps pour ajouter le Serengeti en entier, suivre la migration si c’est la saison, ou inclure une visite culturelle dans un village Maasai ou les gorges d’Olduvai sans se sentir pressé.
Pouvez-vous voir les cinq animaux des Big Five en un seul voyage en Tanzanie ?
Oui. Un itinéraire de 5 à 7 jours qui inclut le cratère du Ngorongoro, le Serengeti et le Tarangire vous offre de bonnes chances de voir les cinq, bien que les observations de rhinocéros ne puissent jamais être entièrement garanties car elles dépendent de l’emplacement de l’animal un jour donné.
Quelle est la meilleure période pour voir les Big Five en Tanzanie ?
La saison sèche, de juin à octobre, offre les meilleures chances globales car les animaux se concentrent autour des sources d’eau qui diminuent et la visibilité est élevée dans tous les grands parcs.
FAQ sur les safaris en Tanzanie
Combien coûte un safari Big Five en Tanzanie ?
Les prix commencent généralement autour de 1 000 à 1 600 $ US par personne pour un voyage de 4 à 5 jours, selon la saison, le type de véhicule (partagé ou privé) et le niveau d’hébergement, et tendent à être de 270 à 330 $ US et plus par personne et par jour.
Est-il préférable de faire un safari Big Five privé ou en groupe ?
Les safaris privés vous offrent plus de flexibilité pour attendre une observation ou ajuster votre itinéraire en temps réel, ce qui est le plus important pour repérer des animaux insaisissables comme le léopard et le rhinocéros. Les safaris en groupe sont plus économiques et offrent toujours de bonnes chances de voir les Big Five sur un itinéraire bien planifié.
Que dois-je emporter pour un safari Big Five en Tanzanie ?
Des vêtements de couleur neutre, des jumelles, un appareil photo avec un objectif zoom raisonnable, une protection solaire et des vêtements superposés pour les safaris matinaux frais sont les essentiels que la plupart des guides recommandent.
